About: I have been house sitting and taking care of pets throughout high school and college. I have two cats of my own. I treat any pet as if it is my own when watching them! I am free a lot of the time and can work around many different schedules. I am easy to work with and am very flexible! I play with my own cats every chance I get and make sure they have everything they could need or want. I do this with the pets I watch as well because that’s how I would want my cats taken care of!

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 10, including dogs, cats, parrots, chickens, and horses, and have some dog training experience. I just graduated from college, so I have a relatively free schedule as I transition, and would love to dedicate that time to animal care! I make sure I am very attentive when seeing what the pet needs, and I make sure to accommodate for whatever recommendations my clients would like to see being done. I also have a flexible schedule and can work around whatever is needed for them to remain happy and healthy.

About: I have experience sitting for dogs from 180lbs to 8lbs. I also have experience caring for multiple dogs in a home or just one dog and am keenly aware of group dynamics. I pride myself on my understanding of dog behavior and body language, and I volunteer at my local rescue so I have been exposed to many different personality types and behaviors. I am comfortable walking rowdy, energetic dogs to dogs with great manners on the lead and dogs of any size (I own a horse, a large puller is no problem!). The top two things that I prioritize are your pup’s safety and ensuring that they have their needs met every single day. I also work from home and am able to keep your dogs routine as normal as possible to reduce any stress. My goal is always to make them feel like they are on their own stay-cation! I truly have your dog’s best interest in mind at all times, and I want to give them the best care that I possibly can.

I pride myself on my ability to make sound decisions, and I will never do anything careless or that could put your pup in danger. I consider myself to be an extremely risk averse person, and always have safety at the front of my mind.

About: I've taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 12 years old and am often told that I am the animal "whisperer"! I love animals and learning each one's personality is my specialty. I have experience in house sitting, dog walking, feeding times, learning what is comfortable with each animal and any medications, along with how each animal prefers to take them! If there are any specific needs that animals prefer or need, I adjust and adapt very easily to those needs. I just graduated from IUPUI and acquired a work from home job that allows me to have plenty of time for your fur babies! Besides the work from home job, I clean residential homes occasionally. My schedule is easily adjusted as needed! As an animal lover, I can ensure that your babies are treated with respect and love. It is my belief that animals should always have the best treatment regardless of any circumstances. Animals have different personalities and those personalities speak out through their actions. I'm very good at picking up on different personalities such as when they are scared, happy, shy, sad and etc. Not only am I good at picking up on these emotions but I'm trained in reacting in a positive way towards those emotions that will help establish trust and safety. Trust and a safe environment are key to helping with anxiety your animal might have in the time they are not with you!

“Darcie was patient with my rescue puppy and gave her time to adjust to a new friend. She kept me updated on how she was doing and sent pictures of Waffles.”

About: I have taken care of my dogs since I was 9 years old. Over the years I have had four dogs that ranged from being 15 pounds to 90 pounds. I enjoy taking care of all kinds of dogs. I have potty trained 2 of my dogs, and I am very patient with them. I am a student at IU, and I live in Bargersville when I am not attending school. I am able to work between classes and when I am home for break. I have a 5-acre yard at my house, and I let my two dogs run free when I am not home. I take them on walks regularly, and we like to play fetch and tug of war. We also like to lay around and chill inside.

About: Hello! My name is Nicole, and I recently moved to the Martinsville area and am reopening my pet sitting business. I’ve been providing professional pet care for dogs and cats since 2016, and my boyfriend, Evan, and I are excited to continue offering services here. We're animal people. We share our home with two senior cats and a playful young Basset Hound named Banjo. I am a nurse by profession, so I’m comfortable giving all types of medications. My boyfriend, Evan, works from home, which means there’s always someone around to give your pets undivided attention, frequent walks, and potty breaks. We're well-experienced with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. The dogs we sit in our home must be comfortable with cats and other dogs. We offer a calm, quiet environment for docile, shy, or senior dogs, and for young or active dogs, we can provide a fun and playful atmosphere. We're also comfortable reinforcing any obedience or training you've been working on, so your pet won't miss a beat. If you're looking for a safe, loving home for your pet while you're away, we'd be honored to take care of them! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet. My partner and I work from home so we are here and very attentive to all pets that we board. We're familiar with basic dog training, obedience, and safety. We live on a quiet farm in a small house. The area is really quiet and not close to any main roads. We prioritize safety for our pets and boarders

About: I absolutely love animals and will care for your pets as my own. I have had cats my whole life and have helped raise them. I also have two pitbulls of my own who are very loving. I am comfortable around all breeds, sizes and ages. I don’t have a problem with early morning walks either. I will show lots of love, attentiveness and patience towards your pets. I will always follow your rules that you have for your pet to encourage good behavior and consistent training. Please call or text if you have any questions! I have a fenced yard and two friendly pups to play with! Also I have extra crates if needed or two separate rooms they can stay in with beds. I have nights off and work during the day so i’m always available for a night walk or mornings. I have every Tuesday off and another random day in the week but I can also work with your schedule. At the moment i’m not accepting boarding. I recently got a kitten and she’s still very scared so hopefully soon I will be able to.
